Dark sound ecology. The mystery of acoustic drones and lyrics echoing from space. But also, ultimately, a “rollercoaster for atheists.” Emotions from Iceland presented by one of the most idiomatic bands in northern Europe. Concert-installation.



Concert organised with the support of the Adam Mickiewicz Institute.
Partner of the concert: State Ethnographic Museum in Warsaw
